PROVENANCE

Claude Burrard Reboul (1825-1886) Collection, France.
By descent to Col. Jacques-Frédéric Reboul (1863-1937), and thence by descent within the family.

A cloisonné enamel stem cup engraved with a similar Qianlong six-character mark is illustrated by H. Brinker and A.
Lutz in Chinese Cloisonné: The Pierre Uldry Collection, The Asia Society Galleries, New York, 1989, no. 262. The bowl
of the Uldry example is broader than the bowl of the present stem cup and is decorated with shou character roundels
fanked by archaistic dragons rather than chilong medallions and fower sprays.
